D.M. colorfully expressed his distaste for the newsletters and
their length, and Matt dreads their maudlin contents, especially
the inevitable dead pets. Todd likes the letters, but he
doesn't send ANYONE Christmas cards (because he can't muster "the
drive"), so his opinion is moot.

The Engels send out New Years cards instead of Christmas cards,
which the Roccos always lose so they can't find his D.M.'s address
the next year. Ebeneezer Todd is waiting until everyone gets
fed up with him and stops sending cards, then he'll send out one
round to build the goodwill back up for a few more
years. Meanwhile the Roccos can't figure out how to keep their
daughter still for a photo and Todd suggest a terrifying
solution.
